- Description
- This 16-year-old from Aberlour unites traditional oak and sherry cask maturation into a complex expression at 43% ABV with notably less sherry sweetness than its 18-year-old sibling. Spice and dried fruit take prominence, with subtle wood tannins adding structure and grip. Suited to those seeking deeper Speyside character and complexity without the full sherried intensity of Aberlour's higher-strength offerings.
